What they did

From doomscrolling looksmaxxing content: under bloated-to-not-bloated transformation videos, ~100 people ask 'How do I debloat?'. The comment section is a strong indicator of how real a problem is; the only existing solutions were products like pills people don't trust. Built an app for it.

What happened

About 40,000 downloads with easy marketing; sold; copycats now make $20-30K a month.

Joseph Choisolutions. That's an interesting category. Would you say that this is a good way to do ideation for apps still, like look at popular like e-commerce categories and then making apps for those?

Rafael KramerI I mean, I didn't necessarily uh find it through the looking at it through an e-commerce lens. I kind of just saw it as like a problem that people wanted to have solved. Like, people were obviously concerned with how bloated they were on TikTok, and if you would go into the comment section, which is a really good indicator of how strong a problem is, you would see people saying like, "How do I debloat?" Like, if you would see a transformation video of a guy be like bloated before and then not bloated after, there would be like 100 people in the comments asking, "How? How? How?" right?

Joseph ChoiThat makes sense. And then when you made your content, you're doing UGC accounts, you said. Um it looks like this account was like slides, um was it mainly slides content or did you also do like face content?
